Choose the verb that fits the subject
Subject-verb agreement means choosing a verb form that matches its subject. With most verbs in present-tense statements, he, she, it, and a singular noun take an ending such as s: the machine works. Plural nouns use the base form: the machines work.

Moving Day: Hearing “A Lot” and “Allot”
A lot describes a large amount or number. It can also mean often or very much. Write it as two words. Allot is a verb: it means to give a particular amount of time, money, or space to someone or something. A company might allot an hour for loading a van. That hour is an assigned amount; it is not necessarily a large amount. Alot is not a standard spelling.

Capital letters mark sentence beginnings and help identify names. Compare a centre with Oak Street Centre: one describes a kind of place, while the other gives its name.

For example: planning a shared kitchen
A general suggestion names a goal or an area to improve, while an example shows one specific action that fits that goal. If someone says, 'We should keep food fresh,' that is a broad aim. Saying, 'For example, we can wrap open cheese in paper,' shows one practical way to achieve it. This phrase answers the question, 'What is one possible case?' In contrast, 'because' explains the reason and answers 'Why?' If you say, 'We wrap cheese because air dries it out,' you give a cause, not a sample action.

Setting Up a Café: Which Opposite Fits?
An opposite reverses a specific quality along the same scale. The adjective light contrasts with heavy when the topic is weight, but it contrasts with dark when the topic is brightness. Words describing physical position, like open and closed, operate independently from words describing security, like locked and unlocked. Changing the wrong quality confuses the instruction.

Bother
Bother functions across two main grammatical patterns. As a transitive verb followed by a person object, it describes causing irritation, worry, or a courteous interruption. When paired with an infinitive or an -ing verb, it conveys the exertion of physical or mental energy to perform an act. In noun form, it represents inconvenience or troublesome effort.
